this phone sucks!! the camera is awful..flash is really pointless because the range of it sucks! it has no video recorder. the battery dies really quick especially when browsing the net. This phone is clearly over rated..do not buy!!!

I have had my blackberry pearl 8100 for two years now, And it is one tough phone! It's been wet, dropped in the mud, dropped of my lap getting out of my car, fell off a 3rd story balcony and has passed the 5 year little girl messing with it all the time test! And it still works like the day i bought it! Very good phone! My only complaint is battery life is not so great... Seems when im on the internet it goes dead quick! but when i get my upgrade next month for sure another blackberry is coming my way!

Blackberrys are made for people with some computer skills not for people just learning how to use a cellphone, depending on the blackberry you are using but, if your looking for a basic cellphone i agree get a NOKIA!
